Follicle-stimulating hormone is produced by the: ovary endometrium hypothalamus anterior pituitary gland
anterior pituitary gland
A change in menstrual bleeding associated w/ lesions w/in the uterus refers to:
- dysfunctional uterine bleeding
- abnormal uterine bleeding
- PID
- fibroids
abnormal uterine bleeding
Painful and difficult menstruation is termed: Menorrhagia Dysmenorrhea Metrorrhagia Amenorrhea
Dysmenorrhea
The temporary endocrine gland that results from the rupture of the graafian follicle is the: corpus albicans corpus luteum cumulus oophorus trophoblastic cells
corpus luteum
The corpus luteum is maintained during pregnancy by which hormone? Follicle-stimulating hormone Luteinizing hormone Progesterone Human chorionic gonadotropin
Human chorionic gonadotropin
An increase in the number of endometrial cells is termed: endometrial hyperplasia endometrial atrophy endometrial carcinoma polyps
endometrial hyperplasia
Endocrine abnormalities that cause abnormal vaginal bleeding are related to: hursutism dysfunctional uterine bleeding fibroids PID
dysfunctional uterine bleeding
The structure noted w/in the graafian follicle containing the developing ovum is the: corpus luteum corpus albicans cumulus oophorus theca internal cells
cumulus oophorus
After the corpus luteum has regressed, which structure remains? theca luteal cyst corpus luteum of pregnancy corpus albicans cumulus oophorus
corpus albicans
The hormone of the pituitary gland that stimulates follicular development of the ovary is: Luteinizing hormone Estrogen Follicle-stimulating hormone Gonadotropin-releasing hormone
Follicle-stimulating hormone
The 1st phase of the ovarian cycle is the: Luteal phase Secretory phase Proliferative phase Follicular phase
Follicular phase
The hormone produced by the hypothalamus that controls the release of the hormones for menstruation by the anterior pituitary gland is: Follicle-stimulating hormone Estrogen Gonadotropin-releasing hormone Luteinizing hormone
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone
The dominant follicle prior to ovulation is termed the: ovarian hyper follicle corpus luteum corpus albicans graafian follicle
graafian follicle
The hormone produced by the trophoblastic cells of the early placenta is: estrogen follicle-stimulating hormone luteinizing hormone human chorionic gonadotropin
human chorionic gonadotropin
The hormone that is responsible for ovulation is: gonadotropin-releasing hormone aldosterone luteinizing hormone progesterone
luteinizing hormone
The 1st phase of the endometrial cycle is the: secretory phase follicular phase luteal phase proliferative phase
proliferative phase
Which hormone released by the ovary during the proliferative phase stimulates endometrial thickening? follicle-stimulating hormone luteinizing hormone estrogen progesterone
estrogen
The periovulatory phase may also be referred to as the: Early secretory phase Late proliferative phase Late secretory phase Early proliferative phase
Late proliferative phase
The corpus luteum primarily releases: estrogen progesterone luteinizing hormone follicle-stimulating hormone
progesterone
Ectopic endometrial tissue w/in the uterus that leads to abnormal uterine bleeding is termed: endometriosis adenomyosis fibroids endometrial hyperplasia
adenomyosis
The arteries w/in the functional layer of the endometrium that are altered by the hormones of the ovary are the: arcuate arteries radial arteries straight arteries spiral arteries
spiral arteries
The 2nd phase of the endometrial cycle is the: secretory phase follicular phase luteal phase proliferative phase
secretory phase
Which of the following hormones is released by the ovary during the 2nd half of the menstrual cycle? luteinizing hormone follicle-stimulating hormone human chorionic gonadotropin progesterone
progesterone
Luteinizing hormone is produced by the: ovary endometrium hypothalamus anterior pituitary gland
anterior pituitary gland
The average menstrual cycle lasts: 45 days 24 days 26 days 28 days
28 days
The 1st menstrual cycle is termed: amenorrhea metrorrhagia mittelschmerz menarch
menarche
The measurement of the endometrium during the proliferative phase ranges from: 6 to 10mm 8 to 12mm 4 to 8mm 1 to 2mm
4 to 8mm
The 2nd phase of the ovarian cycle is called: follicular phase luteal phase secretory phase proliferative phase
luteal phase
The 2 hormones produced by the anterior pituitary gland that impact the menstrual cycle are:
- Luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone
- Luteinizing hormone and estrogen
- Progesterone and estrogen
- Follicle-stimulating hormone and progesterone
Luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone
